Magic: My equipment slots have no restrictions

Chapter 70 Miss Raven's Invitation

The moment he finished listening to Marlene's words, Victor's eyes widened slightly, then narrowed again.

Is it the absolute... capital of order?

In his past life as a police officer, Victor had dreamed that one day the land beneath his feet would become like that.

But when he inadvertently uttered similar words in front of the bureau chief, this is what the bureau chief said:

"Can absolute justice truly bring peace? If evil doesn't exist, why do we need justice?"

Upon careful consideration, the bureau chief was right.

Justice is relative; even in republics, chaos can occur. If Selene is truly as Marlene says, then that remains to be seen.

Victor wanted to hear what Marlene had to say.

But the succubus seemed to remember her devilish nature and stopped with a wicked grin.

"Absolute order, that sounds really good."

Elena, who had grown up in the merchant guild, felt a sense of longing upon hearing about Selene's situation.

She couldn't help but think that if the Raven Merchant Guild had been born in Selene, it would have been in an absolutely safe place, and naturally, there would have been no conflict.

Then, my brother wouldn't have ended up like this.

As the girl pondered, she subconsciously lowered her eyes, her gaze dimming.

"We still can't be careless."

It wasn't until Victor's steady voice rang out that the girl realized her lapse in composure and raised her head again.

"Elena, considering what Marlene said, we need to investigate first."

Viktor's serious expression made the girl slightly nervous, but after hearing his entire sentence, she still managed a slight smile.

So this counts as agreement, right? Mr. Victor has accepted his invitation.

"I will follow Mr. Victor closely."

The girl's expression was radiant.

Viktor couldn't help but turn his face away.

This innocent, lively, and energetic girl always made him feel somewhat inferior.

Ultimately, I am actually a dark person.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he pulled back the carriage curtain to look at the lush green scenery outside, rows of banana trees laden with "golden apples," and his heart calmed down again.

......

It was past noon when the carriage stopped.

Hill lifted the carriage curtain and bowed humbly: "Miss, Hill has successfully completed the mission and arrived in Selene."

These words sounded very serious, making Viktor feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Thank you for your hard work, Hill."

Elena stepped out of the carriage and casually praised it.

Hill immediately smiled with satisfaction and said a long speech, the gist of which was, "This is what I should do."

Viktor was the last to exit the carriage, without Marlene following behind.

As a succubus, the other party could not directly enter this place and has returned to the abyss, awaiting the next summons.

"..."

As soon as he came out, he looked up and surveyed the so-called Land of Order ahead.

The towering silver gate is intricately carved, and two lifelike knight statues stand before it, each holding a sword.

Behind the door, however, was a vast expanse of white mist, through which only the shapes of some pointed towers could be vaguely discerned.

"Gurgle..."

Hill drove the carriage through the gate.

The blonde girl looked at Victor.

"Let's go, Mr. Victor."

The girl smiled and extended her hand.

Viktor's expression stiffened slightly, unsure whether he should reach out and shake hands.

But at that moment, he suddenly had a strong premonition:

If we stop here any longer, Lynn's body will find its way here.

"With so many people around, be mindful of your words and actions."

After saying that, he reached out and took the girl's small hand.

The other person's palm is very well maintained; it feels warm, smooth, and delicate to the touch.

That was Victor's first impression. He didn't have time to process what followed, and quickly pulled the girl through the gate.

Little did he know that the girl's cheeks were already flushed, and she looked somewhat at a loss.

This was the first time she had done something like this, and she just wanted to try it out, even anticipating failure.

But the warmth of her palms told her that she had succeeded.

However, the girl's secrets were destined to remain unknown.

As Viktor stepped through the city gates, the mist before him vanished like a dream, revealing spotless streets.

The buildings lining both sides of the street resembled medieval noble residences, with a mix of white and blue colors, giving them an overall simple and unpretentious appearance.

Viktor kept walking, but his eyes lingered on the pedestrians around him.

"Business is very good at the store today..."

"Mom, do you know, everyone at the academy is very nice..."

Here, whether it's workers, shop owners, children, or parents, everyone has a smile on their face and their words are filled with the word "good".

Moreover, not a single beggar appeared on the roadside.

It does look very natural.

Viktor couldn't help but make this judgment, but he still had doubts in his heart.

"Let's go to the church."

Elena walked alongside him, a smile on her face, looking... somewhat happy?

Victor didn't know why he thought that way, but the girl certainly did.

"Okay, let's walk around together, so you can get to know this place better."

He smiled and replied that he was now playing the role of a bodyguard, so he should be more serious.

"Um!"

Elena nodded vigorously, feeling that Victor looked a little different today.

The thought of having almost a month of leisure time ahead made her smile and start looking around.

For the rest of the journey, Viktor indulged the girl, allowing her to enter various small shops.

After walking and stopping for several hundred meters, Viktor suddenly realized that the ominous sign of danger... had disappeared.

"Could it be that Lynn's companion has been lost?"

While Victor was pondering, he didn't notice Elena walking out of the candy store, carrying a bag of mysterious candies.

"Mr. Victor, open your mouth."

When the other person spoke, Viktor instinctively opened his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, a strong sour and bitter sensation, along with the taste of a gummy candy, exploded in my mouth.

In an instant, his facial features scrunched up, making him look even more scrunched up than a squash.

"Ha ha......"

Elena first burst into laughter, then realized her identity and covered her mouth with a low chuckle.

Viktor frowned, about to spit out the candy, when he suddenly felt the bitter and sour taste fading, turning into a refreshing minty sweetness.

He couldn't help but turn to look at the girl.

"This is a bittersweet treat; it was my favorite when I was a child."

The girl smiled brightly and handed the candy she had just unwrapped to Victor.

As expected, the phrase "bitter before sweet" was written in another world's language.

"It's delicious."

Although he was being pranked, Viktor just smiled helplessly and put the candy into his equipment inventory.

Upon seeing this, a glint flashed in the girl's eyes, and her ears involuntarily turned slightly red.

"that......

"Mr. Victor probably hasn't been to a church yet, has he? Those kinds of buildings always have very obvious silver moon features."

She pulled Victor forward and continued, "Let's go to church together to pray."
